    The author reflects on improvements made from their preliminary task to the final product. For the preliminary task, there was no planning and shots were improvised, whereas more planning and research went into the final product. Some similarities between the two included using the same camera and some similar shot types. However, for the final product they addressed issues like a lack of close-up shots, choosing better actors after being unhappy with initial footage, and learning how to focus the camera properly. The author concludes that the final product was a massive success compared to the preliminary task because they took lessons learned to improve planning, casting, shot types, and technical skills.

    7 Looking back at your preliminary task, what do you thing that you have
    learned in the progression from it to the main product?
    Throughout the construction of the preliminary task, my group and I did not do any
    planning. The story as well as the shots used were mostly improvised throughout
    the whole process. We used the camera that we used in the preliminary task, the
    Canon 700D, to film the main production because we were familiar with how to use
    it. In the preliminary task, the only sound that we used was diegetic dialogue as the
    production was extremely short, although we could have used other sound to make
    it better. There were some similarities between our preliminary task and the final
    product. For example, in cinematography, we used two shots and also over the
    shoulder shots in both productions.

    Preliminary

    Final Product

    In editing, we used match on action and shot-reverse-shot to show the power


    difference between the protagonist and the antagonist. Some difficulties that we
    faced while filming the preliminary task were
    that the camerawork was not of a good
    standard. An example of this is that we broke
    the 180 degree rule multiple times. We also
    faced problems with the sound as while filming,
    we were being disrupted by the noise from the
    outside. Because of this we were forced to film
    more than twice and spent more time than
    needed on the task. Also, another reason for us
    having to film again was the poor acting by our
    cast that we had originally selected. We had to go with these actors because of the
    limitation of actors available to us. We also faced many difficulties with the main
    product. One of these was that in the first filming session, we didnt use any closeup shot. We had to have close-up shots as it is a part of the codes and conventions
    of thriller and therefore we had to go back and film again so that we can get the
    shots we need. Another problem was that we felt that we had chosen the wrong
    actors and werent happy with the footage from the first filming session, we had to
    therefore film again and this time we got the right cast to act resulting in a better
    final product.
    One of the biggest problem that we faced was the focus of the camera. This was
    because none of us knew how to put the camera on focus the first time around

    which resulted in out of focus footage. Because of this we had film again to produce
    better footage after learning how to put the camera on focus. We feel that our main
    production is a massive success compared to our preliminary task. This is because
    we had taken notice of the flaws from the preliminary task as well as the first two
    filming session to produce the best footage that we couldve which resulted in a
    successful final product. We had planned and done research which enabled us to
    work at our best as a group as well as individually.
